Speaker 3: Let's take a look at some stocks on the move today.

5
00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:21,439
Speaker 3: I'm Nathan Hager, joined by Bloomberg's Valerie Titel in a

6
00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:23,840
Speaker 3: morning where I've got my list of the most actively

7
00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:26,520
Speaker 3: traded stocks in the pre market up this morning, Valerie,

8
00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:29,600
Speaker 3: every single one of them is in the green.

9
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:31,040
Speaker 4: Where do you want to starch?

10
00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:33,839
Speaker 1: Good morning, Hey, Look, it is a positive day for

11
00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:36,640
Speaker 1: the equity market and leading those gains for the Mac

12
00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:39,560
Speaker 1: seven is Nvidia, up nearly two and a half percent

13
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:41,040
Speaker 1: in overnight trade.

14
00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:43,040
Speaker 4: This is just on the back of the fact that the.

15
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:46,680
Speaker 1: FED cut rates yesterday because they can not necessarily because

16
00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:48,479
Speaker 1: they have to, and I think that's led to a

17
00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:51,680
Speaker 1: reassessment that it's risk gone after this FED cut.

18
00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:54,280
Speaker 4: It's funny that Navidia is surging.

19
00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:56,360
Speaker 1: So much because there actually was some negative news that

20
00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:59,480
Speaker 1: came out of China overnight. Huawei said that they have

21
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:03,480
Speaker 1: unveiled a new AI chip technology with greater computing power

22
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:06,400
Speaker 1: in a bid to challenge Navidia's dominance in the AI

23
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:09,280
Speaker 1: chip space, but that has not deterred the tech rally.

24
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:10,639
Speaker 4: We're seeing it in US futures.

25
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:14,479
Speaker 1: We're also seeing it in Europe where were stocks like asml, asm,

26
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:15,959
Speaker 1: Infini and st.

27
00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:17,679
Speaker 4: Micro all up near four percent.

28
00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:20,160
Speaker 1: So it's a positive day for the AI trade on

29
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:21,160
Speaker 1: both sides of the Atlantic.

30
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:22,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, no question.

31
00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:26,120
Speaker 3: And we've also got some deal news in the pharma

32
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:28,479
Speaker 3: space on the other side of the pond.

33
00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:31,600
Speaker 4: Now, this has to do with the obesity drug Race.

34
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:35,759
Speaker 1: Roche, the Swiss pharma company, has agreed to buy eighty

35
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:39,160
Speaker 1: nine bio for over an eighty percent premium. We're seeing

36
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:42,560
Speaker 1: shares of eighty nine bio up over eighty three percent

37
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 1: in the pre market.

38
00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:44,200
Speaker 2: Now.

39
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:47,880
Speaker 1: This is Roche's third acquisition to try to position itself

40
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:52,120
Speaker 1: better in the obesity the obesity drug Race eighty nine

41
00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:56,200
Speaker 1: bio develops therapies from metabolic diseases and has a key

42
00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 1: drug in late stage development that Roche is keen for.

43
00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:02,160
Speaker 1: Roach agreed to pay fourteen dollars and fifty cents per

44
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:05,400
Speaker 1: share and have also agreed for a six dollars per

45
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:06,480
Speaker 1: share later.

46
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:08,000
Speaker 4: If certain milestones are mets.

47
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 1: This is another landmark deal for Roch, who's trying to

48
00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 1: compete and catch up with Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly

49
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 1: in the OBSD drug space.

50
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:18,040
Speaker 3: Now in this sea of green, there is some red

51
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:20,680
Speaker 3: to talk about. Tell us what's going on with Redcat.

52
00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:22,600
Speaker 1: This one is a kind of a cool story though,

53
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 1: So yes, Redcat is down near seven percent.

54
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:26,720
Speaker 4: This is a drone stock.

55
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:29,480
Speaker 1: Got a lot of attention on the Departments of Defense's

56
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:33,239
Speaker 1: new drone focus of late they announced a proposed public

57
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 1: offering of shares. Now the scant details on size and

58
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:38,960
Speaker 1: terms that was not announced yet, but it intends to

59
00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:43,720
Speaker 1: use the proceeds for working capital for CAPEX spending related

60
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:48,840
Speaker 1: to unmanned surface vessels, which is essentially drone warships. The

61
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,240
Speaker 1: pictures are pretty cool that I've googled online of what

62
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:54,840
Speaker 1: a drone warship looks like. So maybe a positive news

63
00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:57,400
Speaker 1: for the stock in some way that they are looking

64
00:02:57,440 --> 00:02:59,959
Speaker 1: for other markets outside of just air air based drone

65
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,280
Speaker 1: technology to help out with the Department of Defense.

66
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:05,959
Speaker 3: Plate and another downside mover this morning, while we wait

67
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:09,120
Speaker 3: for big earnings from FedEx, we got earnings as well

68
00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:15,440
Speaker 3: from Cracker Barrel. After the logo matter, how's Cracker Barrel

69
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:15,959
Speaker 3: doing this morning?

70
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:18,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's not doing very well. It's down near ten percent.

71
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:22,640
Speaker 1: They gave a sales guidance which missed expectations, and also

72
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:26,200
Speaker 1: the previous quarters sales numbers weren't too strong. They're really

73
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:28,880
Speaker 1: predicting stagnating growth, similar to what they saw at the

74
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:31,440
Speaker 1: end of last year for this restaurant chain. But they're

75
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:36,160
Speaker 1: also dealing with the backlash after attempting to streamline their logo.

76
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:38,720
Speaker 4: They removed Uncle Herschel.

77
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 1: Which I actually didn't know that he had a name,

78
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 1: but they removed Uncle Herschel from their logo. It attracted

79
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:46,119
Speaker 1: widespread backlash, even from the US President, So they're still

80
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:48,440
Speaker 1: dealing with that, even though they have swapped their logo

81
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:51,080
Speaker 1: back to what it used to be and they've halted

82
00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:55,360
Speaker 1: remodeling of their restaurants, but their stock is still down

83
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:56,360
Speaker 1: ten percent today.
